Today we started our poetry unit in Writer's Workshop. We are going to be starting very slowly and not writing any poetry until next week. I want them to first start thinking and seeing like a poet. This is a hard concept for most, even me, and I want them to feel success and not get discouraged. We started today by looking at some ordinary objects, we wore our special poet's glasses, and tried to write about what we saw.
I am sending home special poetry homework as well. Don't worry, it's easy!
